Write down all the factors of 108 and 252.
Hence
2)108
2)54
3)27
3)9
3)3 =

2)252
2)126
2)63
3)21
3)7
7)7 = 1
'2' appears in both division sets twice; 2 x 2 = 4
'3' appears in both division sets twice also 3 x 3 = 9
Hence 3 x 9 = 36 Hence '36' is the HCF.
NB The '7' and the remaining '3' are NOT common to both sets, so they cannot be part of the HCF.
If the highest common factor of 120 and 252 is 12 10*12 = 120 21*12 = 252 Then it follows that the highest common factor of CXX and CCLII is XII X*XII = CXX XXI*XII = CCLII
To find the highest common factor (HCF) of 196 and 252, we first need to find the factors of each number. The factors of 196 are 1, 2, 4, 7, 14, 28, 49, 98, and 196. The factors of 252 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 9, 12, 14, 18, 21, 28, 36, 42, 63, 84, 126, and 252. The highest common factor of 196 and 252 is 28, as it is the greatest number that divides both 196 and 252 without leaving a remainder.
No. It can be neither. HCF is Highest Common Factor; a factor of a number is a number which divides into it with no remainder. Thus all factors are less than or equal to the number. 72 is greater than 6, therefore it cannot be a factor of 6, nor the Highest Common Factor of 6 and another number. LCM is Lowest Common Multiple; a multiple of a number is that number times some other number. Thus all multiples are greater than or equal to the number. 72 is less than 252, therefore it cannot be a multiple of 252, nor can it be the Lowest Common Multiple of 252 and another number. However, 6 is a factor of 72, thus 6 could be the HCF of 72 and another number, eg hcf(30, 72) = 6. But 252 is not a multiple of 72, so 252 could not be a LCM of 72 and some other number.
The GCF is 12.
The GCF is 12.
The greatest common factor of 108 and 252 is 36.
The HCF is: 12
7
The GCF is 36.
If the highest common factor of 120 and 252 is 12 10*12 = 120 21*12 = 252 Then it follows that the highest common factor of CXX and CCLII is XII X*XII = CXX XXI*XII = CCLII
28
The greatest common factor (GCF) is often also called the greatest common divisor (GCD) or highest common factor (HCF). Keep in mind that these different terms all refer to the same thing: the largest integer which evenly divides two or more numbers.The greatest common factor of 108 and 252 is 36
The highest common factor of the numbers 294, 252 and 210 is 42.
Here are some numbers that have 36 as their greatest common factor: 36 and 72 72 and 252 108 and 180 324 and 360
To find the highest common factor (HCF) of 196 and 252, we first need to find the factors of each number. The factors of 196 are 1, 2, 4, 7, 14, 28, 49, 98, and 196. The factors of 252 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 9, 12, 14, 18, 21, 28, 36, 42, 63, 84, 126, and 252. The highest common factor of 196 and 252 is 28, as it is the greatest number that divides both 196 and 252 without leaving a remainder.
The greatest common factor of 252 and 300 is 12.
The greatest common factor (GCF) is often also called the greatest common divisor (GCD) or highest common factor (HCF). Keep in mind that these different terms all refer to the same thing: the largest integer which evenly divides two or more numbers.Since 252 is a single number, you could say that it shares all of its factors with itself. So the greatest factor of 252 is 252
